“Kiki…Are you still upset because of that creep?” Giselle sighed and sat on my baby blue bedding. Opening my mouth to answer, I was bluntly cut off by Vivienne.
“Cassie it’s been days, forget him, he’s just another prick looking for some ass.” Vivienne rolled her eyes and slipped into a pair of tall leather boot that only enhanced her breathtaking figure.
“She’s right, he was a complete weirdo. I shouldn’t have let you be in there with him alone.” Giselle apologized and touched my bare shoulder, “He didn’t hurt you, did he?” She asked worriedly.
I shook my head and exhaled deeply, “No, he didn’t.” I told them for the millionth time. I wanted them to drop the topic already because they wouldn’t understand me even if I opened up to them about Jimmy.
“Well good, then he’s nothing compared to the douche bags that come here! Wait till you see the creep I had to go down on the other day.” Giselle filched disgustedly, sticking her tongue out.
“You did what?! Giselle!” I gasped, not believing my ears. “That’s what you girls do in the private rooms the clients?!” I exclaimed.
“Relax Cassie, it’s no big deal! We are obviously not paid to chat with them...” She smirked and hopped off my mattress, heading to the full body mirror that was attached to our dorm’s door.
“Doesn’t that degrade you?” I asked and immediately decided that I would never ever ask Lou to put me off stage again.
Giselle shrugged and began separating her thick eyelashes with a tiny bobby pin, “Nah, cock is cock.” She said bluntly, “Right?” She winked over her shoulder at Vivienne.
“Absolutely!” Vivienne giggled hysterically but stopped once she saw my disturbed facial expression. “How old are you, Kiki?” She asked and crawled closer to me, a sly grin plastered to her heart shaped lips.
“Twenty three.” I blinked, feeling my cheeks flush.
“Aww G, did you hear that? She’s only a baby.” Vivienne pouted and batted her eyelashes. Giselle’s replay was a high pitched laugh and I felt like I was in the hot spot, which I was by no means fond of.
“Have you ever been with a man, Cassidy?” She giggled, getting closer to observe my reaction.
My jaw dropped to the floor, “Of course I have!” I protested, not appreciating the way she was treating me.
“That cook you’re seeing doesn’t count, he’s just a pathetic woos.” Vivienne scorned and finished lacing up her boots. I decided to ignore the hurtful comment she made about my boyfriend, and decided to adopt a stiffer attitude.
“My answer remains the same, Vivienne.” I rolled my eyes.
“Then why did you freak out after that dude did…whatever he did? You bowled your eyes out for like an hour.” Giselle tuned in while brushing through her curly locks of light brown hair.
I was getting sick and tired of their disrespectful attitude, they acted like they were experts in everything. It’s true what people say, pretty girls are indeed vicious.
“Lay off her, will you?” Aubrey appeared out of nowhere and climbed inside the dorm through the window.
“And where were you, if I may ask?” Vivienne bit back, cocking a perfectly arched eyebrow.
“None of your business, Viv.” Aubrey ignored Vivienne’s question and hung her checkered trench coat on the hook by her bed.
Giselle was the first one to give into peer pressure, “Listen Cass, we’re only concerned for your safety, you know? Tell you what, I was given three tickets to this band’s concert and Viv and I are going. Do you wanna drag along?” She asked.
